December Telethon: Money for Organissimo
AllenLowe replied to AllenLowe's topic in Forums Discussion
personally I think he's cribbed everything he knows from Larry Kart - -
well, as long as we're advertising - I do transfers from LP to CD; using an audiophile turntable and high-quality A to D converters and will also give it a run through CEDAR to eliminate about 80-90% of surface noise; also will re-eq and can usually improve original sources - will do for $20 per LP plus shipping - I've done transfer work for Sony, Ryko, NPR, Micahel Feinstein, Shout and Rhino, and numerous small labels including Venus (in Japan), Global Village and others - my price is little high than these guys but CEDAR is much superior to the program-based de-clickers -

I can no longer trust new USA vinyl production....
AllenLowe replied to wolff's topic in The Vinyl Frontier
"there actually is a lot of mudslinging and rudeness here, combined with some clinical self-righteousness. The perpetrators are highly valued by the community, however, and so all is deemed good with freedom of expression as a perfect hideout" who's hiding out? I've got my real name here, and would be happy to supply email, phone, cell phone, and address, as well as tax returns from the last 5 years and recent blood test results - it's quite amusing to read what Couw says in regard to this - when one looks at the actual posts, what he is saying is that nastiness is ok as long as he agrees with the side from which it is posted - but if it is done in the name of someone or something he does not like or agree with, than it is unfair and rude. I am assuming that I am one of those to whom he is referring with the above comments - truth is that I do react with anger sometimes, but the key word is REACT - I feel I have to say something when I am called a boob or full of shit, but I will not go there unless I am led there (lemmings have always been my favorite animal. Self destructive, perhaps, but in adherence to a certain inalienable principle) - one needs, as well, to understand the tone of my posts, which I must admit are frequently made with reference, at least tonally, to Lenny Bruce. These are times in which I regularly feel the generation gap. -

and just to let people know, the prior thread about this was cut due to objections to the way I characterized someone, in relation to a forbidden disease - my apologies. I did want to mention, however, the thousands of supportive emails I received when I was called a boob on this web site - (theme music: "I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter/and make believe it came from you ") - -

Bracelet Found in Chicken After 25 Years

thank you for the correction - please note that the stuff will go away with a little Vagisal - just remember to keep it dry - -
"have sex in space with famous dead people, like Columbus or Francis Bavier" now I'm getting hot - question is, do they have to be alive again to have sex with you, or it sufficent to have sex with Aunt Bee post-mortem? I'm not really sure which would be worse - though I have heard rumors that Columbus, in moments of great passion, was said to have screamed "I have discovered the New World!"

"Only four positions were found possible without "mechanical assistance"." well, in that case, they're doing beter than I am - "The other six needed a special elastic belt and inflatable tunnel, like an open-ended sleeping bag." No shit, I've been using that stuff for years -

ok sensitive ones, we're raising money for this web site and time to put our petty personal squabbles aside - it's not my fault there is a surfeit of STDs among members of this board; personally I am unashamed of my chronic gonorrhea, and the Doc says that the thing on the back of my thigh should clear up any day now - time to give $$$$$$$ - I've given away one free volume of Devilin Tune already - also, between now and XMAS, I will sell any volume of Devilin Tune for $35 shipped and give $10 to Organissimo - give until it hurts, or at least until your Urologist puts you on Amoxicillin - (see Frank Zappa for details) -

Wayne is taleneted - when he was in High School he used to sit in with my band in New Haven, a few years later I saw him at a small local club and was amazed at how far he'd come - the only problem he had was deciding what he wanted to be - one week he was Coltrane, the next week Rollins, the next Shorter - in some ways he had too good a talent for mimicry for his own good, but I figured it was just a matter of time until he sorted it all out. Interestingly enough, the comments above indicate that he is still somewhat flexible and working things out - can't complain though, as I wish I had half his chops -

semi-bi-tri-qui-annual Xmas Sale: Devilin Tune
AllenLowe replied to AllenLowe's topic in Offering and Looking For...
yikes, I missed all this stuff. must've been asleep for a week - thanks Chris and everyone for the kind words - no Grammy this year, I guess since it's not a major-label release - though I did get honorable mention for a CD I recorded once, from the National Association of Independent Record Distributors (it was the Louis Armstrong tribute with Doc Cheatham/David Murray/Loren Schoenberg) - just bumping again - will add to the following: pre-Xmas sale: each Volume of Devilin Tune for $40 shipped in the US of A; all 4 volumes for $150 shipped - in addition to the freebee of Volume 4 that I've offered for the first person to give $25 to this web site, I will give the web site $5 for each volume ordered between now and Xmas - (so if a full set is ordered, I will give Jim $20) - email me directly at allenlowe@verizon.net -

according to what I've read a chicken lives 8-10 years - unless this chicken has been dead and frozen for about 15 years - must be one of the Colonel's - -

AllenLowe replied to alocispepraluger102's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
unless I missed something (and Jazzmouse DOES say that I am a boob, so it's very possible) do I understand correctly that this chicken lived to at least age 25 and was than slaughtered for food? -
still can't find that damn brace -

speak for yourself - I'm drowning in the stuff -
